Jon M. Chu To Give This Year’s Commencement Speech At Alma Mater USC
Jon M. Chu, in the midst of making back-to-back Wicked movies, will deliver the keynote address at USC's 142nd commencement ceremony in May.
Chu, whose credits also include Crazy Rich Asians and In the Heights, graduated from the USC School of Cinematic Arts in 2003.
